3rd mode: SHOOTER Mode - After completing both
MAGICIAN and FIGHTER modes, you will receive a new
password: CROSSBOW. Enter this name when you start a new
game, and Nathan will be in 'SHOOTER' mode (instead of
VAMPIREKILLER).
In this mode, Nathan will have considerably low stats
in all areas. However, he will start out with a very
large amount of maximum hearts, sub-weapons will do
a considerable amount of damage, and certain events
will allow you to gain a new sub-weapon, the Homing
Dagger (a dagger that tracks down enemies).
NOTE: You can still gain cards in this mode.
New FIGHTER Mode - After completing the game in
Magician mode (see my other code for Magician mode), you
will get a new mode to play as a FIGHTER. There doesn't
seem to be trading cards to pick up but the strength of
Nathan seems to have been beefed up a lot making the
game easier. Leveling up is quicker and also damage
sustained is less than before.
Start the game anew and enter ''GRADIUS'' as the name.
Play in Magician mode - After completing the game
using Nathan, you will be given a passcode to input into
a new game. Enter FIREBALL as the name and start the
game as new. You will find that under the DSS option,
you will have all the trading cards to start off with.
Instead of being called VAMPIREKILLER, the word on the
top left of the option screen reads MAGICIAN
